Got my first ever estate a few weeks ago. Went from an MX5 to this so it's taken a bit of getting used to but I love it.

That's fantastic

Great colour for it as well...

A few decent estates on this site..

Estates have never been cool. Nor will they ever be.

You seem to be in the minority here

Always thought these were cool. Still do.

I love a Shooting Brake. This is a style of car that we should see more of. So much more practical than a coupe but they can be just as cool. Bring on the modern day Reliant Scimitar GTE I say!

I used to have a Lancia HPE though, and on still nights you could listen to it rusting. It was the worst car I ever owned.

He doesn't like saloons either. Presumably by in his eyes it's only hatchbacks that are cool.

He's wrong.

I still have a yearning for one of these

I'd prefer one in Skoda format. A Skoda with the same engine as a Cayenne sounds good to me.

That is ridiculously overpriced. Ignoring that would have been on my short list if it wasn't auto only.

Seat Leon Cupra R 4WD anyone ?

[djdest]

I've been watching the prices of them for the last few years, they seem to be holding very well for some reason.
I know they're rare, but can't imagine many people would want one. If anything, that is a very average price for a low Biscay blue estate, certainly no more expensive than the last few that have come up for sale.

Me too. Although that one is way overpriced. Need to be 10k or less. That and a V70R might be next on the list.

[djdest]

I've only seen one R36 estate for sale anywhere near 10k in the last year, and that was a silver one in Ireland
